May 31, 2009 – 200 meters to left to go in the climb!Photo credit: Kristine Toone. My wife took this picture about 200 meters before the finish – it gives you a good idea of how steep the hill was! I believe 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place are just off the lefthand frame of the picture not visible. Fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth place are all visible with eighth being just in front or beside the red support truck.
